Barak Pridor Talks about ClearForest, Calais, Reuters and the Semantic Web
In our latest podcast I talk with ClearForest CEO, Barak Pridor. We discuss the changing business model in Reuters’ core markets, and consider ways in which their acquisition of ClearForest in 2007 helps Reuters position for the future. We also consider the technical and business decisions behind Reuters’ recent announcement of an open API for the new Calais Web Service, built upon ClearForest’s technology.
For more analysis of the conversation, see ZDNet’s blog, The Semantic Web.
During the conversation, we refer to the following resources;
- Autonomy
- Calais, and launch coverage on ReadWriteWeb and SemanticWeb.com

- Tim O’Reilly discusses his interview with Reuters’ Devin Wenig
